I am so excited to be sharing my creations for the first time as a design team member for Inktegrity. Joni created some cool and yummy images this time! Here are my cards for the recent release that is available on December 1st:

1) Mint to Be

2) Gingerbread House

3) North Pole Sundae

These images were great! I needed a few more Christmas cards for my stamping friends so it was perfect. The first card, Mint, is heading to my friend Vickie Y in Indiana. She was my big sister in Divine Secret Sisters that just ended this month. I thought it would be nice to send a cute Thank You card to her for all that she did for me this round!

So did everyone survive Thanksgiving? How many of you are Black Friday shoppers? NOT ME!!! I'm enjoying my extra time off from work and I am hoping to make some Christmas gifts too!

This week's challenge over at The Character Cafe is being hosted by Angie C. Her challenge is a color combination using Papertrey Ink's Spring Moss, Spring Rain and Melon Berry. For those of you that do not know this, Papertrey Ink's Melon Berry is really close to Stampin' Up's retired Groovy Guava. So if you miss that SU color, go check it out.

I decided to use Pax the Penguin this week. I have a co-worker's birthday coming up in December and she loves penguins, how fitting!

Be sure to check the other design team member's work who are working on this week's challenge:

This princess is from Robyns Fetish and she was so much fun to color. I love her in the different shades of purple! I think the larger areas to color are a great way to practice your shading skills. This card will surely brighten some princess' day!

This week's challenge over at The Character Cafe is a sketch challenge hsoted by Maria Bell and her blog is called Stampin' Inspirations. She is a great sketch artist and is on the design team for Angels Landing, Christmas Stampin' All Year Long, Little C's, Pink Cat Studios, Scor-Pal and Stamp N' Scrap Hawaii. She is one busy lady who found the time to do a sketch challenge with us.

Here is my card for Maria's sketch:

I just love sketches! If you do too then check out my blog out my blog on Wednesdays for Hump Day Inspiration.

Today is my 37th birthday! I share it with someone that is really special to me, Mickey Mouse! Hence the obsession! I have one rule for my birthday, I refuse to cook. Knowing Jay, we will be having Subway grinders tonight or chinese food, either one is fine with me. This gives me more time to play in my craft room! Have fun with this week's sketch!

I'd like to see your work using my sketch. Please leave me a comment along with a link to your card. When uploading it to SCS, PCP or other stamping community, please use SCDU6.

I've been in the mood to scrap lately. Here is my last page from my Disney scrapbook from our trip in September 2008.

In Hollywood Studios, in the Animation Building, they offer classes on how to draw a character. Unforuntely, it was our day to fly home; otherwise, I would have spent the day there to learn how to draw all the characters available. Mine is on the right and Jay's is on the left. Which is better??? Anyways, it was really fun!

I found this great new digital stamp company the other day called Tiddly Inks. She has some great images of animals and girls. I had to buy this one for my room mate Munchy that lives in my craft room. I have rarely seen any guinea pig stamps but this one is super cute! When you have a moment, please go check out her Etsy store, you won't be sorry!

I am sending this card to my mom. She has a guinea pig too and I colored this one to match hers. She'll appreciate it!

This week's challenge at Corrosive Challenge Blog was to make Anything but a Card. This was a major challenge for me! Thankfully I needed a little something for my friend Elizabeth's daughter. I met Liz on SCS and we met in person 3 weeks ago and she loved the box. Here is the link to the tutorial on SCS for making a 2-5-7-10 box.
